Our mission during these challenging times is to encourage and support the educators and parents sustaining learning during COVID-19.
We will continuously update this list with free resources for parents and educators to support continued learning. We will get through this together.
Update: Since writing this blog post, we have created our own collection of digital citizenship resources, complete with a fun and informative video, a slideshow for teachers to share with their classes, a printable pledge and activities that use writing book recommendations and reviews as real-world applications of digital citizenship. We encourage you to take a look and feel free to share these resources with your students and collegues!
